Santal Noble Maître Parfumeur et Gantier 1988

Recently, they mixed up my tea order at the pharmacy. When I wanted to pick up my order, it wasn't ready. They hurriedly got to mixing it. Meanwhile, the boss herself offered me a coffee: "Would you like a cappuccino?" I sat down - delighted by such nice error management - in the corner where sugar measurements are usually taken and enjoyed an surprisingly good coffee.
I savored those few minutes of oasis in the everyday, until my order was ready.

This fragrance transports me back to that pharmacy. Something very medically correct comes to mind. Fortunately, the antiseptic quality fades quite quickly and transforms into a marvelous delight.
A masterful pleasure, where sometimes leather (which is not listed), sometimes coffee notes, then steamy earthiness, and then again spicy notes and wood flash through.

Complexity and transparency are not incompatible.
This is what this fragrance shows.
